.vg

.vg is the Internet country code top-level domain (ccTLD) for the British Virgin Islands. Because it allows registration at the second level, and does not require the registrant to be associated with the British Virgin Islands, it has also been used by piracy related websites such as The Pirate Bay, and video gaming related blogs and websites.

AI overview

.vg is the official internet domain extension for the British Virgin Islands that anyone worldwide can register without needing a local connection to the territory. It has become popular not only for British Virgin Islands websites but also for piracy sites and gaming-related blogs because of its open registration policy and the convenient coincidence that ".vg" can stand for "video gaming."
